Lot 513 | Bedeutende, gravierte Schleifkanne, Wien, vor 1623
Zinn mit leichter Alterspatina. Korpus mit leicht konischer Stitzenform auf drei Engelskopffüßen. Umlaufend feine Gravur in zwei Registern. Im oberen Teil zentrale Darstellung des deutschen Kaisers, flankiert von sieben Kurfürsten, darunter acht deutsche Herzöge, in den Händen jeweils ein Schild mit Landeswappen haltend. Flacher, scharniergelagerter Deckel mit Knauf in Form eines sitzenden Löwen. Kugeldrücker, am Henkelansatz geschlagene Wiener Meistermarke und "W". Bandhenkel mit fein reliefiertem Dekor, Darstellung von Leda und dem Schwan zwischen Rankendekor. Bodenrosette mit gekreuzten Pfeilen und "H.S.". Höhe 49 cm.
Im ersten Viertel des 17. Jhdts. waren in Wien zwei Meister mit den Initialen "H.S." tätig: Hanns Sichart (Hintze, Band 7, Nr. 1490) und Hanns Schuerz (Hintze, Band 7, Nr. 1498). Beide kommen als Urheber für diese Kanne infrage.
Die Zahl der Kurfürsten erhöhte sich 1623 mit der Erhebung der Herzöge von Bayern in den Kurfürstenstand auf acht. Da die Gravur nur sieben Kurfürsten zeigt, muss die Kanne davor entstanden sein.

An important Viennese pewter jug ("Schleifkanne"), before 1623
Pewter with slight age patina. Body of slightly conical form on three angel head feet. The exterior finely engraved in two tiers. The upper segment with a central portrayal of the German emperor, flanked by seven prince-electors, the lower segment depicting eight German dukes, each of them holding a shield emblazoned with the coat of arms of their state in their hands. Flat hinged lid with lion finial. Ball thumbrest, the shoulder of the handle with Vienna master mark and "W". Band handle with fine relief décor, portrayal of Leda and the Swan between scrolling foliage. Base rosette with crossed arrows and "H.S.". Height 49 cm.
In the first quarter of the 17th century, there were two Vienna-based masters with the initials "H.S.": Hanns Sichart (Hintze, volume 7, no. 1490) and Hanns Schuerz (Hintze, volume 7, no. 1498). Both could be the maker of this jug.
The number of prince-electors increased to eight in 1623, when the Bavarian dukes were raised to prince-electors. As the engraving only shows seven prince-electors, the jug must have been made before that date.
